Basil Jet remarked:
Far better to have anodyne, vaguely geographic names.
Where's the vague geographic location of 'the Jubilee'?
I don't know about the Jubi bit, but the Lee runs from Stratford down
to Canning Town and then flows into the Thames opposite North Greenwich.
I think you'll finds that's the Lea (cf Leagrave the source).
Of transport interest the nearby canal has some locks where the keeper
used to answer the phone [say it quickly] Bow Locks.
Lee[1], and its station, are near Lewisham.
[1] Almost an anagram of Ely, and another of the few stations whose code
is the same as the station.
